Garden and Boundary Wall Builders in London
A well-built garden wall outlives several fences — and a leaning one is a hazard. We build and rebuild garden and boundary walls across London, with proper foundations, matching brickwork and the coping details that keep water out of the wall.
What the service can include
- New garden and boundary walls, designed and built
- Demolition and rebuilding of leaning or failed walls
- Brick piers, coping and capping details
- Foundations suited to the wall height and ground
- Matching brickwork to the house and neighbouring walls
Suitable projects
- Replacing failed or leaning boundary walls
- Front garden walls and piers
- Retaining walls for level changes in gardens
- Walls forming part of extension and landscaping projects

What can affect the quotation
- The wall's approximate length and height
- Photographs of the existing wall or the site
- Whether the wall retains higher ground on one side
- Whether the wall is shared with a neighbour
Materials and finish options
- Properly founded walls built to last
- Brickwork matched to the property
- Coping and damp-proof details that protect the wall
- Design input for retaining or taller walls
Exclusions and specialist requirements
Walls retaining significant ground, or walls above a modest height, need engineering design — available through our structural design services. Shared boundary walls can involve party wall procedures and neighbour agreement. Planning rules limit wall heights next to highways, and we build within them unless you have consent for more.
Frequently asked questions
- Why is my garden wall leaning?
- Usually failed or inadequate foundations, tree roots, or ground movement. A leaning wall rarely improves — rebuilding with proper foundations is normally the lasting answer.
- Can you rebuild using my existing bricks?
- Where the bricks are sound, we can clean and reuse them, blending in matching new bricks where needed.
- How high can I build a front garden wall?
- Next to a highway, walls over 1 metre usually need planning permission; elsewhere 2 metres is the normal limit. We build within the rules unless you have consent.
